2sxc - Access an adam file by unique identifier

I need to access an ID to an adam file setup like this:

2sxc adam

MyDocument is the field name, where users can load an image or whatever. In a list style view, users will click a link that activates a detail view for that image.

The link will be something like mysite.com/mytab/detailsforfile/fileId

The details view will parse the fileId and load the image.

So, two questions:

  1. How can I access an ID for that adam file that later allows me to load that file based on that id?
  2. How can I access the URL of the file based on the ID created?

Is the native DNN file: 123 the only way? Or does 2sxc or adam have some specific ids?

Edit: A practical example would probably help:

This list view will have:

@foreach(var car in eCars) {
    <div>
         <strong>@car.Name</strong>
         <img class="img-fluid" src="@car.carImageOne">
         <a href="@("/whatever/" + IDFORTHISIMAGE)">See full image...</a>
         <img class="img-fluid" src="@car.carImageTwo">
         <a href="@("/whatever/" + IDFORTHISIMAGE)">See full image...</a>
    </div>
}

And the details view:

@{
    var qsImageId = Request.QueryString["whatever"];
    //cast and double check the qs int
    var imageURL = ??; // How do I get the file url based on the id?
}
<div>
    //embed nice frame, ads, whatever
    <img class="img-fluid" src="@imageURL">
</div>
Solution

  • To get the file ID I used this:

    var getFile = AsAdam(Entity, "field").Files as System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<dynamic>;
get fileId = getFile.First().FileId;

    To get the url from the id:

    var myFile = FileManager.Instance.GetFile(FileId);
var myurl = FileManager.Instance.GetUrl(myFile);
